Lots of people say "fuck America" but I'm not upset by it personally. He didn't say "fuck Israelis"
Good points. Its rough being a member of the majority that is not in agreement with the governmental official line. Like I'm pretty sure most Russians hate putin, most Israeli s hate Bibi, most Chinese hate Xi and most USians hate both Biden and Trump... But here we all are, just trying to do right by people as best we can while still keeping our families from being destroyed by the pressures that be.
We just gotta keep the pressure up. Dont let the bastards grind you down. They are getting paid by some of the richest folks on the planet to do just that, while you have to make an honest living... Dont let them win. Keep your heart open to your neighbors and beyond

I’m sure not every single German during ww2 was a nazi. Your family might not actively support what’s happening but they are passively complicit and beneficiaries of what is happening by remaining in the country.
I'm not even sure if they can just leave at this point
Why not? Most have access to citizenship from their original countries? Plus the extreme orthodox just threatened to all leave if they get included in the draft

70 percent were born in Israel. So thirty percent likely still have citizenship or could remain citizenship from their native land. The rest are mostly second or third generation so depending on ancestry many could claim citizenship by descent.
70 percent were born in Israel
That's pretty much "most". Also emigration isn't just getting a one way ticket and that's it. Not to speak of cases of bed-ridden or otherwise incapacitated people and their caretakers

The fathers of 44% of Israel were born in Israel, as of 2015. I doubt they have dual citizenship, just as most Americans don't have dual citizenship to their grandparents and great grandparents countries of origin.
Also, most Mizrahim and Sephardim these days are living in Israel, similarly to how most Ashkenazim are in the US. Even if an Israeli somehow has e.g. Iraqi, Iranian or Yemeni citizenship, moving back probably isn't a safe idea. Morocco is probably safer, though.
After the fall of the USSR, there was also a huge wave of Russian emigration to Israel. Given conscription for the war in Ukraine, moving back now might not be the best idea.

I compare them to germans who aren’t nazis living passively in nazi germany. If your family isn’t actively against what Israel is doing they are passively supporting it.

The difference is they choose whichever context lets them play the victim.
I hate to break it to you, but the ongoing Palestinian genocide puts the Israelis on par with Nazis. Feel free to pretend otherwise, but they both were/are a group justifying killing another group based on their religion/ethnicity with the underlying true purpose of taking their land and possessions while consolidating political power.
Hiding what?
AIPAC - American Israel Public Affairs Committee
Seems obvious from the name, no?

It doesn't say anything about the DNC. Are you sure you read all the words present here?

The DNC didn't select them, those picks won the primaries. The voters picked them.

It's weird. It's usually the people who don't understand how primaries work who are the ones to think the popular vote picks the president. Glad to see you understand at least one part of the electoral process.

and since most Democrats are paying lip service to the state of israel, this is statistically uninteresting.
You don't wonder why these Democrats all "coincidentally" support israel?... They're doing more than "paying lip service".

Top tier cope.
Aipac heavily screens their politicians in advance for beng pro israel enough. They don't back anyone that doesn't support them.

Ah yes the entirety of Congress just backs a Genocide and denies every israeli war crime being committed for no reason.
It's not a conspiracy that israel controls their talking points. Congress members have openly admitted to this 21:48

Maybe because I live in DC it is more in your face here, but the politico part of this town has been sucking Israel's cock for decades.
It has come as a real surprise to me that most of the country didn't seem to know that until this Gaza war.

I generally agree but I think it is starting to change. The primary protest votes suggest there is growing “disapproval” regarding Israel, and this is among actual voters. Not enough to make it politically “safe” for Biden to outright oppose Israel now, but it is something.
The biggest bubble is the bubble around Washington, D.C., fueled by tons of money. Most people would agree there is a genocide if they were made aware of it, but there is a lot of money being pumped to make sure the truth isn't given any attention.

They've never hid it. Here's a video they released years ago bragging about how they basically own all our politicians: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlKmWa8p4UM
